By beaming an ultra-low latency live feed from its camera directly into a pair of goggles, a first-person view (FPV) drone puts you right in the cockpit of a small and agile aircraft able to squeak through the smallest of gaps and pull off breath-taking moves like flips, barrel rolls, loops and vertical plunges. These aren’t drones you buy to get pristine photos of wide open vistas so much as to experience (and document) an adrenaline-inducing rollercoaster ride through a tight, obstacle-populated environment. As such, piloting an FPV drone is a completely different, entirely more challenging kettle of fish than…

Suppose you could speed up Earth’s rotation so that a day was only half as long? What would happen? Well, for starters we’d have to make new clocks that only have hours 1 to 6 for am and pm. If you had tickets to an 8 o’clock concert, you’d be out of luck: 8 o’clock no longer exists.But maybe a more germane question is, why do physicists ask nutty questions like this?

For Avanti Patil, business isn’t just a field of study; it’s a family legacy and personal mission. Pursuing higher education was a natural path for Patil, a Bachelor of Business Administration student at DY Patil University in Navi Mumbai, India. Her connection to the school is personal: her family founded the institution and has led prominent colleges and healthcare centers for years. Growing up in that environment sparked an interest in business with a social purpose. Inspired by her upbringing, she’s focused on a clear goal: “I want to build brands that are empathetic with customers.” Now, in her final…
Alerts about operations are disseminated through direct messages, WhatsApp, or posts on each page’s feed. In turn, it is possible to anonymously report the presence of immigration agents through private text messages or calls to specific phone numbers.In general, users are asked for basic data such as time, date, city, state, and exact location of the operation, as well as photographs or videos when it is possible to document them. In addition to issuing real-time alerts, many of these pages offer free legal guidance, not only on migration issues, but also on labor rights, access to health, education, and other…
The US Environmental Protection Agency moved to roll back emissions standards for power plants, the second-largest source of CO2 emissions in the country, on Wednesday, claiming that the American power sector does not “contribute significantly” to air pollution.“The bottom line is that the EPA is trying to get out of the climate change business,” says Ryan Maher, a staff attorney at the Center for Biological Diversity.The announcement comes just days after the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) quietly released record-breaking new figures showing the highest seasonal concentration of CO2 in recorded history.In a press conference on Tuesday, flanked by…
Los Angeles is a city of immigrants. It is also a city of unions. And in California, those two constituencies have essentially melded into one.So it should come as no surprise that federal immigration raids on workplaces around Los Angeles County this week set off the largest protests to date against President Trump’s immigration crackdown.On the first day of the protests, David Huerta, the president of the California chapter of the Service Employees International Union and the grandson of Mexican farmworkers, was arrested and hospitalized for a head injury after being pushed by a federal agent. Officials said he was…
